They will be joined by biologist and explorer Lizzie Daly and environmental journalist and author Sarah Roberts.

The women will discuss working in locations ranging from jungles and Arctic landscapes to Britain’s coastlines and countryside, as well as the challenges involved in capturing wildlife for television.

Michaela said the show would be “inspiring, candid and alive with the humour and unpredictability of working in the wild”.

She added that it was also intended to inspire the next generation of girls and young women to consider careers in wildlife filmmaking and conservation.

Tickets are on sale now through the Royal & Derngate and Wild Women Live website.
